What is potassium Ferricyanide?

Potassium ferricyanide is made by passing chlorine through a solution of potassium ferrocyanide


What is the chemical equation for bubbling chlorine gas through a solution of potassium iodide gives iodine and a solution of potassium chloride?

The chemical equation is:2 KI + Cl2 = 2 KCl + I2


Why can't potassium bromide be electrolysed when solid?

The energy required to break its ionic bonding is too great to allow net motion of anions or cations in one direction through the solid.


Solution of potassium chloride?

The chemical compound potassium chloride (KCl) is a metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. In its pure state it is odorless. It has a white or colorless vitreous crystal, with a crystal structure that cleaves easily in three directions. Potassium chloride crystals are face-centered cubic. Potassium chloride is also commonly known as "Muriate of Potash". Potash varies in color from pink or red to white depending on the mining and recovery process used. White potash, sometimes referred to as soluble potash, is usually higher in analysis and is used primarily for making liquid starter fertilizers. KCl is used in medicine, scientific applications, food processing and in judicial execution through lethal injection. It occurs naturally as the mineral sylvite and in combination with sodium chloride as sylvinite

Why does the color of aqueous potassium bromide change when chlorine gas is bubbled into it?

Chlorine is a stronger oxidizer than elemental Bromine. So, when yellowish chlorine gas is bubbled through the Bromide solution, a red colour is formed which is Bromine. Chlorine oxidizes Bromide ions to elemental Bromine while itself is reduced to Chloride ions. So, the total reaction is: Cl2 + Br- ----> Br2 + Cl-

Chlorine Gas is bubbled through a calcium bromide Solution what type of reaction is made?

Chlorine is a more reactive halogen than bromine, therefore, when chlorine gas is bubbled through a calcium bromide solution, the chlorine will take the place of the bromine. This is called an anionic single replacement (displacement) reaction. Cl2(g) + CaBr2(aq) --> Br2(l) + CaCl2(aq)


What is the chemical equation for bubbling chlorine gas through a solution of potassium iodide gives iodine and a solution of potassium chloride?

The chemical equation is:2 KI + Cl2 = 2 KCl + I2


What products would you get when you bubble chlorine gas through a sodium bromide solution?

You would get Sodium Chloride and Bromine. This is because Chlorine is a more reactive group 7, (halogen), element that bromine, we know this because it is above bromine in the periodic table group, it is therefore more electronegative. When the reaction occurs, the Chlorine displaces the Bromine and the solution turns brown.


If you dissolve potassium bromide in water and add electricity What will happen?

It allows ions to flow through the water.


Why can an electrical current pass through potassium hydroxide solution?

This is possible because potassium hydroxide is an electrolyte.


Chlorine gas is bubbled through a solution of distilled water?

you get HCl and HClO


What would you see when ozone is bubbled through aqeous acidified potassium iodide?

from colourless(solution) to brown(solution)


What is the raw material for obtaining chlorine?

Hydrogen Fluoride (HF) or Potassium Fluoride (KF), through the process of electrolysis.


What is the process controlled by sodium potassium and chlorine whereby fluids flow in and out of cells through the cell walls?

osmosis


When fluorine gas is bubbled through a solution of sodium bromide the products are free bromine liquid and sodium fluoride in solution is?

The chemical reaction is: 2NaBr + F2 = 2NaF + Br2
